Unicorn Trans World Trading       closed

Amsterdam

Used clothes - now closed

Also known as Trans World Trading

Address:  ground floor, Oude Zijds Voorburgwal 266, Amsterdam (the same address as other Dutch Tvind companies such as  EC Trading)

This Dutch company traded in import and export of ' general goods' several years ago.    Two prominent members of the Teachers Group were named as directors by Rotterdam Dagblad in 1995:     Jonas Israel and  Hans Joergen Lausten

Jonas Israel, born 1958, another senior Tvind financial manager, was also in the USA in the early 1990s and was associated with many of the same companies as Hansen.   He was a director of All Europe Satellite Television Ltd, one of the companies cited in the Danish police charges.

More recently he was a signatory of the Gaia-Movement Trust, Switzerland, a company exposed as a scam on this website, and is now (2003) associated with McCorry and Co, Luyang, Malaysia - a timber trading company.

Hans Lautsen or Lautsten - more information follows

Lars Malte Hansen, born 1961, principal shareholder, is a former pupil at the DNS in Denmark and thus firmly associated with the Tvind Teachers Group.   Mr Hansen had previously worked for Tvind in the United States - he had an address in North Miami Beach in 1991 - and he has also worked a Tvind clothes trader for Textiles Bougainville in Togo and Benin, west Africa, in around 1995.

Mr Hansen is reported to have been 'very close' to Flemming Gustaffson, director of the bankrupt and disgraced Tvind company EC Trading at the same Amsterdam address.   

Hansen - now in business in the Baltic States - has contacted Tvind Alert to state that he no longer any connection with Tvind or the Teachers Group.

Joop Trompert, another long established member of the TG, was Hansen's 'number two' at Trans World Trading according to information sent to us.   Trompert went on to work for the disgraced company EC Trading and now works for Humana Holland at Bunnik
